I saw it discussed on a thread not long ago, and can't seem to find it now, where someone was having issues installing the Desktop Experience of Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel. Just saw this article published over the weekend stating that the Semi-Annual Channel will in fact no longer include the Desktop Experience as an option, only the Core since that's their recommended version/edition. The Desktop Experience will still continue on the LTSC.... for now.

Hopefully everyone is using DNF Automatic and/or keeping their systems up to date. This was fixed in May 2018.

Lol, not that way. I think he is moving into writing and more specific work. But his blog was and is amazing for Exchange and Office 365.

I seen they are changing the look of the Office Suite... at least the ribbon/bar. I can't find the link atm, but I think it'll be much better now, at least IMO.

@obsolesce Not really changes to the ribbon, they are actually moving back to menus.
